Hang Clean form issues [all cleans too]
okay, I know this have most likely been posted multiple times but I will post it again.
I have watched the videos on here and elsewhere, so I know the form. It is completing it. Trying yesterdays WOD spurred this, I could only use 145 lb. On that note, as much as I try I kick out farther then I want too. My issue normally stems from both the energy transfer and pulling myself underneath the bar. I am planning on setting aside a day next week to do a WOD and then focus on these techniques. What should I try to improve my technique? Another issue is that I cannot comfortably achieve the noted arm position while racking. I cannot keep my arms up on my shoulder [bent]. Is that okay? I think my forearms are too long during example testing as when I have my arms closer to horizontal my hands are even or beyond my head. Thank you for any help I receive. I want to get better at this. |

Not sure about the rack, maybe if you uploaded a picture someone would be more able to help out. Most likely a mobility issue, and if it is, your answer is on mobilitywod.com WFS. |

Re: Hang Clean form issues [all cleans too]
I agree with Brad, doing cleans in a workout will not help you focus on the clean. You need to do cleans on their own.
From what I can understand about your rack position, it may help to move your hand grip wider. I am 5foot 6in and have long arms, my hand grip is almost tuching the smooth line from the center. about 4inches shorter then my snatch grip. A video ot pics would help alot. |
